Nowadays the gifts that are given tend to be the packet and tinned variety, rather than fresh produce, as it all gets taken to the Food Bank for distribution, where it is very gratefully received.

There was also a beautiful exhibition of Harvest pictures by the school children displayed in the Nave of the church.
